Venezuelan Refugee and Migrant Flow Monitoring in Peru, Q2 2022

UNHCR Peru monitors the movement dynamics of Venezuelan refugees and migrants at the border to analyze protection needs and vulnerabilities. The data, collected in the second quarter of 2022, focuses on transit routes and risks in the Tacna and Puno regions. Results are not statistically representative but serve as a general indicator of trends.

Use Cases

• Analyzing migration route patterns based on described movement dynamics.
• Identifying protection risks based on descriptions of irregular border crossings.
• Informing humanitarian logistics based on described transit methods like walking or hitchhiking.
• Assessing trends in vulnerabilities based on the described monitoring of protection needs.

Strengths

• Data is produced by UNHCR, a leading UN agency on refugee issues.
• Focuses on a specific time period (Q2 2022) and geographic regions (Tacna and Puno).

Limitations
